    Where can I get a scale??
    Sooo I wanna measure my snakes weight in grams so I can better feed him and just to be curious as to what he weighs. I wanna know where I can get a scale that measures in grams so I dont have to look all over and I wanna get one for under 20 bucks. If thats at all possible...

    Thanks.
    Corey.

    Depending on which models are available at each store, the digital ones run on the average of around $25.00 give or take a couple of dollars. Sometimes they have cheaper mechanical or analog types but I'm not sure how accurate they are...

    I bought mine off ebay. It measures up to 11 lbs. in grams and ounces. Comes with a bowl. I got it for $17.00 shipped.
    Here is a link on ebay to the same scale.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/11-lb-5kg-Digita...ht_3820wt_1165

    Hope this helps.

    I got my first scale from walmart for around 25 + tax. but it couldn't weigh my snakes that were over 2000 grams, can't remember exactly the weight, but I got one off of ebay that weighs to 7000 grams. and it weighs per gram the one from walmart does it in 2 gram incruments. I had both scales at first and they was within a gram of each other so the walmart one was as accurite as the on I got from ebay which was the 7001 dx which many breeders use. reptile basic sells them for 38.99 but I got my off of ebay for less.

    The scales I found at Walmart suck. Try a postal scale from Office Depot.

    This place has a few scales:

    Once I got my Reptile Basics scale, I now use my Wal-Mart scale for weighing prey at the pet shop... :gj:
